Strength Of Materials

  1. A hollow shaft (d0 = 2di where d0 and di are the outer and inner diameters respectively) needs to transmit 20 kW power at 3000 RPM. If the maximum permissible shear stress is 30 MPa, d0 is
    1. 11.29 mm
    2. 22.58 mm
    3. 33.87 mm
    4. 45.16 mm
Correct Option: B

P = Tω

20 × 10³ = T ×
2π × 3000
60

∴ T = 63.662 N– m
Now
T
=
τ
Ipr

So,
63.662
=
30 × 106
(r0 = d),
π/32(15d41)d1

∴ d1 = 11.295 mm
∴ d0 = 2d1 = 22.59 mm
